Notes:                  
1. Both Chem 6A and MAE 9 or MAE 10 are required if the Physics 2 sequence is taken instead of the Physics 4 sequence.    
1. Physics Elective: Two courses from either the theoretical or experimental pre-grad school sequence: Phys 100C, 105B or 120B, 110B, 130C, 140B  
3. Electives: It is recommended that students take the 3 quarter astrophysics sequence Phys 160, 161, and 162; see advisor for other acceptable courses in astrophysics
4. Upper-division Lab to be chosen from: Phys 120B, 121, 133
